Craft: Poisons

[JesterPoet]

Where should I look to find rules on crafting poisons? Is it simply an offshoot of alchemy, or is it its own craft skill altogether?

I didn't see info on it in the DMG under poisons, but perhaps I didn't look hard enough. I tried to do a search here on ENWorld, but my searches always bomb out, so it wasn't worth it.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'd like my character to be able to start crafting poisons for use in game.

Thanks!

Hi there,

IIRC, all the info you need is in Complete Adventurer that just came out.

I thought the description of the poisions in the DMG contained components and DC's for craft potions.

Hi!

Have a look into the CV (=CAdv), pages 97/98: Craft: (Poisonmaking). You may find sth. help-/useful. [oops, like Altamont said!]

If it is not mentioned: Go to www.philipjreed.com for the OGL "The Assassin's Guide to Poisons"

Kind regards

There are also a few magical poisons in the Book of Eldritch Might by Malhavoc Press. I believe they are basically spells whose effects are produced when the character would take the effects of the poison. Some of them are cool. I wish they would make more. [Since you have to be a spellcaster to make them, I'm not sure you could use this, assuming you want to.]
